Laser Writing of Parabolic Micromirrors with a High Numerical Aperture for Optical Trapping and Rotation
T. Plaskocinski, Y. Arita, G. D. Bruce +4
On-chip optical trapping systems allow for high scalability and lower the barrier to access. Systems capable of trapping multiple particles typically come with high cost and comple…
Fano resonance-assisted all-dielectric array for enhanced near-field optical trapping of nanoparticles
Donato Conteduca, Saba N. Khan, Manuel A. Martínez Ruiz +3
Near-field optics can overcome the diffraction limit by creating strong optical gradients to enable the trapping of nanoparticles. However, it remains challenging to achieve effici…
Snapshot hyperspectral imaging of intracellular lasers
Soraya Caixeiro, Philip Wijesinghe, Kishan Dholakia +1
Intracellular lasers are emerging as powerful biosensors for multiplexed tracking and precision sensing of cells and their microenvironment. This sensing capacity is enabled by qua…
All-optical sub-Kelvin sympathetic cooling of a levitated microsphere in vacuum
Yoshihiko Arita, Graham D. Bruce, Ewan M. Wright +3
We demonstrate all-optical sympathetic cooling of a laser-trapped microsphere to sub-Kelvin temperatures, mediate by optical binding to a feedback-cooled adjacent particle. Our stu…
Roadmap for Optical Tweezers
Giovanni Volpe, Onofrio M. Maragò, Halina Rubinzstein-Dunlop +80
Optical tweezers are tools made of light that enable contactless pushing, trapping, and manipulation of objects ranging from atoms to space light sails. Since the pioneering work b…
Cooling the optical-spin driven limit cycle oscillations of a levitated gyroscope
Yoshihiko Arita, Stephen H. Simpson, Graham D. Bruce +3
The non-conservative, azimuthal forces associated with inhomogeneous optical-spin angular momentum play a critical role in optical trapping. Intriguingly, birefringent microspheres…
